In some computers, the PC133 is backwards compatible with PC100 slots, but not all the time. Try it and see :)

Like david said the memory is backward compatible. On some boards the 2 sticks have to match, but I think thats older ones. I have taken memory out of machine to test a stick and put back the original in same slots and it would not even start. If it will not start at first reset the bios or try it one stick at time. GOOD LUCK
